Maker spaces and CleanTech labs in Berlin's east
Home to the GDR's largest prefab housing estate — 100,000 apartments built in a single decade — Marzahn has reinvented itself without erasing its Plattenbau identity. Eleven-storey blocks were terraced down to six floors during Stadtumbau Ost. The Georg-Knorr-Park redevelopment is adding 1,600 new flats near the S-Bahn. A Museumswohnung preserves an original DDR apartment. MotionLab and the ORWOHaus music factory signal a growing maker and creative scene.
MotionLab.Berlin Campus Marzahn anchors a high-tech startup campus with coworking and prototyping labs. The 300-hectare CleanTech Marzahn industrial area focuses on green energy, sustainable mobility, and resource efficiency. Over 1,200 hectares of commercial land host established manufacturers alongside emerging deeptech ventures.
S7 and S75 serve six stations: Springpfuhl, Poelchaustraße, Marzahn, Raoul-Wallenberg-Straße, Mehrower Allee, and Ahrensfelde. U5 at Kienberg (Gärten der Welt) links to the southern district. Tram lines M6 and M8 run through the centre. BER airport under 30 minutes by car via A113.
Gärten der Welt with IGA cable car carrying 3,000 passengers/hour over Kienbergpark. Alt-Marzahn historic village with a working windmill and village church. ORWOHaus — "the loudest building in town" — a music factory in a converted industrial block. Museumswohnung WBS-70 for DDR-era nostalgia.
Hardware startups and maker-entrepreneurs who need affordable prototyping space at MotionLab. CleanTech engineers, industrial designers, and creative-economy workers drawn to converted Plattenbau studios and low rents.
